Once upon a time, humankind ruled the world while lycans and vampires lived in secret.
This is no longer that time.
Calina
I have thirty-six hours to live.
Thirty-six hours to find a solution.
Thirty-six hours to kill them all.
My friends. My family. My subjects.
It's a cruel fate, one my maker subjected me to over a century ago when she placed me in this hell. I learned then that freedom is a falsehood. Escape doesn't exist. I'm a ticking time bomb, slated to erupt.
Until he appears from above. A vampire. A walking god with icy blue eyes. He claims to be our salvation, but I see him for who he really is--the devil in disguise.
Jace
I don't want to be king, but I'll become one if it means I can have her--the gorgeous ice queen I found waiting for me inside Lilith's labs. She feigns indifference, claiming I do nothing for her, but I see the embers stirring in her stunning hazel eyes.
Only there's more to her than a pretty little face.
She's neither vampire nor lycan.
An immortal without a classification.
A secret I must now contain in a world collapsing in chaos.
Welcome to the new beginning.
My name's King Jace. Allow me to be your guide...
